Another day, another late game blown lead as Penn State Basketball fell 62-61 to Nebraska Sunday at the Bryce Jordan Center, in heartbreaking fashion on Valentine’s Day.
The first half was a bit ugly (again).
Nebraska coach Fred Hoiberg sunk into a deep zone to, gulp, not let John Harrar beat them? Although the Nittany Lions got an early five-point lead, and was able to extend it to eight at the peak, cold shooting from the Lions made Hoiberg look like a genius.
